About The Role

Production Operatives are sought in Ledbury for a full-time, temp-to-perm contract paying £13 per hour. Working Monday to Friday, successful candidates rotate weekly between morning and afternoon shifts on a food manufacturer's production line.

Duties include:

  • Operating machinery
  • Checking output quality
  • Packing goods
  • Maintaining hygiene standards across the site

Full training is given, so applicants need not arrive with prior factory experience; reliability, attention to detail, and the ability to work well within a team matter most. Physical stamina suits this hands-on position, which involves standing for long periods and following safety procedures carefully. Those seeking steady hours and a route into permanent manufacturing employment should apply through Pertemps Gloucester.


The Role

As a Factory Operative, you'll play a key role in keeping production running smoothly and ensuring high-quality products are prepared and packed ready for customers.

Your Duties May Include

  • Preparing products and materials ready for the production process.
  • Loading products onto production lines and supporting smooth factory operations.
  • Working alongside modern semi-automated machinery to help maintain production targets.
  • Conducting quality checks to ensure products meet company standards.
  • Monitoring products throughout the production process, including inspection stages.
  • Packing and palletising finished goods ready for distribution.
  • Working closely with your team and Line Leader to achieve daily production goals.
  • Maintaining excellent housekeeping standards across the factory.
  • Following food safety, quality, and health & safety procedures at all times.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
